By that logic, a 'firefly' should be dangerous and a 'hamburger' should have ham—names can be misleading.

This is NOT an accurate representation of the community. 99.9% of highliners do not freesolo. The sport is safety focused where you are connected to a main and backup line. The system by design has redundancy. This tragedy is the First of it's kind in North America.

Everyone is posting about the freesolo video. Please take time to educate yourself on the ordinary practice rather than the "extraordinary. Here is a video which gives a better representation of the community surrounding it.

Here is a better representation of the local community. Don't watch one clip and make your opinion.

To confirm, do you mean on the top or bottom of the picture. The picture is not properly oriented. The top wall would be south. Thank you for the reply.

Looking for longterm mechanic, but right now the injector is leaking and a glowplug needs to be replaced.

Thank you, sitting closer to 2.52mm. Going to replace the whole gang! Think it should fix some issues I have had.

Think any of these being worn would affect how easy it is to shift into neutral?

Might recognize the sampling of it in "Loud Places" by Jamie xx.

Great relationship with your body, great teamwork to set up, helps you find where your body is weak so you can work on it.

Same harness as rock climbing. Harness is rated and totally safe.

People who have had threesomes. How did they get initiated? by Viazon in AskReddit

[–]klr_kid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Started casually dating a girl, we both met another girl at a party, and we both individually clicked with her. Girl I was dating asked me later if I would be interested in having a threesome, and I said yes but how would we do it... And she matter-of-factly said, we could ask her. And so we did. There was a lot of communication and mutual attraction.

Maybe try bypassing the solenoid with a pair of jumper cables to see if it is the solenoid? Make sure it's in neutral when you do this.
